We bill out for a few clients that we backup for another internal division.
Real high level:
Total amount of capacity / total$ for the hardware (including maint charges)
+ total$ for the software + total$ for the media + labor$ + $$ amount of
square footage we consume in the datacenter for the hardware to sit there =
our rate charged per GB stored per month to each client that wants the
service.

Subject: Possible Bill-Back methods
Hello all,
I currently in the process of creating a bill-back matrix for my off-site
clients. I am curious to see if there are "industry standards" for a
formula that I can use. Below are some of the questions in particular.
1. Do you charge per GB of total storage? If so, what is a good price to
charge?
2. Do you charge for Network use / transfer time.
3. I am also planning on putting in a support fee for restores and misc.
work.
Any discussion on this would be greatly appreciated.
Best Regards,
Blaine
